This document discusses the potential use of iPads in the aviation industry. It notes that while many want to use iPads, airlines are unsure how to implement them. Some benefits of iPads include their lower cost, faster startup times, long battery life, and consumer appeal. However, there are challenges to consider, such as durability issues and a need for backup plans. The document advocates developing use cases tailored to user goals and the industry's needs to help airlines successfully integrate tablet technology.
